I recently acquired a new, somewhat expensive hobby. That would be obtaining and modifying Nerf guns.
It all started when I was fooling around with my old Scout IX-3 and thought "man, I love this little blaster, but it'd be great if it had better range". This was swiftly followed by "wait, I'm an engineer. I can rebuild it! Stronger! Faster! Better! I HAVE THE TECHNOLOGY!"
Because I am, as a friend described me, a "gigantic Mass Effect fan", I was inspired to do a cosmetic mod inspired by the M-77 Paladin.
It's my first cosmetic mod, and most of any talent is muscle memory from painting model rockets and cars as a kid. Still, I'm reasonably pleased with how it came out:

(On an entirely unrelated note: no, I haven't forgotten about the 15 character meme I posted last week. Just been a little busy with Fallout 3 and getting this game I'm writing ready to run next weekend.)
